2000 Chevrolet Impala - Reliable car that won't stop

This car itself looks slick for an older car. It's 16 years old now and it still looks like a pretty good car from those standpoints. The car itself will not die. I have money set aside to buy a new car if this one were to ever go, but it just keeps going and going and going. I decided I'd put only about $500 into the car for repairs over a 3 year period after purchase, and so far I have only put in $200 to replace the radiator. Other than that this car just keeps going and going. One time I was stupid and was changing the oil on my car myself - and had to drive up on those ramps to change it. I drove over the ramps, car slammed down on top of them. I thought, oh snap, this is it... but nope, I jacked it up, removed the ramps, and the car still is running like a champ. Just won't stop....

Story

I needed some dirt - just some fill dirt. Love fill dirt to fill in my back yard. Got to a a place where I could fill it up in the back of my car, totally happy with it. Started backing out of the driveway, trunk filled with dirt... and OH SNAP - scraped the sidewalk because it was too heavy in the back... but car just kept going.

Pros

This was a second car for my wife originally when we were low on cash, so we weren't really big on the features - we just needed another car. This one was used and cheap so it was great. Glad it is so reliable. Power windows were nice, we didn't have those before. Radio was good in the car, and the heated seats are great in the winter.

Cons

Really have few cons to say about this car as I am very very happy with it. The car itself does shake a little bit when driving, but that's just the car itself and probably not the make totally. Also, would be better if the A/C could get to the back of the car easier... back vents or something.

2014 Chevrolet Impala - Luxury Car at Reasonable Price

In 2014 Chevy redesigned the Impala now it is bigger than previous models, has more cup holders, has a gorgeous interior trim package, tons of space and looks much more expensive than it was. My friends say it looks like a high end luxury car. I look forward to driving it every day - it feels sophisticated.

Story

The day I bought my car my daughter and I were goofing around and I was showing her the huge trunk - she climbed in and laid down. We took a photo and sent it to my grand daughter - she was appalled that I put her auntie in the trunk!

Pros

It gets great gas mileage for a sedan and it rides like a dream. The driver and passenger seats are wide and plush and fully adjustable, which is nice for my husband who has back trouble.
The back seat is incredibly roomy, it fits two car seats well. I also like that the seats can be folded down for extra hauling room - when I go scrapbooking I take a lot of bags and bins and I fill it up!
I also love the built in GPS. The audio system provides great sound in both the front and back seats and is fully Bluetooth compatible. I'm so happy I bought a car with remote start - helps so much in ... (more)

The gunmetal grey is a great color - people compliment my car all the time.

Cons

I'm having a hard time thinking of any cons about this car. I did have an issue with the size when I first bought it, but soon adjusted to it being wider than my previous Impala.
